Usually a company's book value and Tangible Book per Share may not reflect its true value. The assets may be carried on the balance sheets at the original cost minus depreciation. This may underestimate the true economic values of the assets. It also may over-estimate their true economic value because the assets can become obsolete.

Advanced Battery Technologies (Advanced Battery Technologies) Business Description

Traded in Other Exchanges
N/A
Address
Advanced Battery Technologies Inc was incorporated in the State of Delaware on January 16, 1984. It is a holding company, which is engaged in design, manufacture and distribution of rechargeable polymer lithium-ion batteries and electric vehicles through its wholly owned subsidiaries, Cashtech, ZQPT, Wuxi ZQ and the VIE, HLJ ZQPT. ZQ Power-Tech designs, manufactures and markets rechargeable polymer lithium-ion batteries. PLI batteries produce a relatively high average of 3.8 volts per cell, which makes them attractive in terms of both weight and volume. Additionally, they can be manufactured in very thin configurations and with large footprints. PLI cells can be configured in almost any prismatic shape, and can be made thinner than 0.0195 inches to fill virtually any shape efficiently. This combination of power and versatility makes rechargeable PLI batteries particularly attractive for use in consumer products such as portable computers, personal digital assistants and cellular telephones. ZQ Power-Techs batteries combine high-energy chemistry with state-of-the-art polymer technology. Every battery component is solid, which means that there are no liquids that need to be contained by heavy cell housings. The result is a safe, thin, lightweight rechargeable battery with an operating temperature range. Similar to lithium-ion prismatic rechargeable cells, the ZQ Power-Tech polymer cells do not exhibit a memory problem. This means that they can be recharged at any state of charge, without first having to be completely discharged. At the present time, ZQ Power-Tech produces only one finished product. This is a cordless miners lamp equipped with a rechargeable PLI battery. The Companys operating subsidiaries, ZQ Power-Tech and Wuxi ZQ, are subject to numerous Chinese provincial and local laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment.
